what you’ll do

Paul Rudd knows a thing or two about shrinking things down to size. He also knows about having a good time. And that’s why—as you’ll discover—Paul Rudd is the best mini golf partner on earth! True facts only. You and a friend will join Paul in New York City to hit the miniature links and get to know the nicest dude in Hollywood over some good old-fashioned putt-putt. We can’t guarantee that you’ll hit a hole-in-one. Or hear some Avengers spoilers. Or Paul won’t yell “Slappin da bass” in your backswing. But we can guarantee you’ll have a blast. Flights and hotel included.

Founded by educator Adrienne Slover and filmmaker Evan Goldberg, Reel Start provides deserving students from underrepresented communities the hands-on opportunity to learn that film can deliver powerful messages to the public and drive social change. Reel Start students in Toronto and Los Angeles explore behind-the-camera opportunities in the entertainment industry while also developing media literacy skills. Learning from guest speakers, workshops and visits to active productions, the students gain an understanding of the industry while simultaneously using these new skills to write and develop a short film addressing a social issue that is meaningful to them. The program culminates with the students collaborating with an all volunteer cast and crew as they bring their script to life in a single day.

“I spent a lot of time this past summer hanging out with a bunch of superheroes,” said Rudd, according to KansasCity.com, who missed out on crossover epic Infinity War but appears next in Ant-Man and the Wasp and Avengers 4.

“I spent a lot of time this past summer hanging out with a bunch of superheroes,” said Rudd, according to KansasCity.com, who missed out on crossover epic Infinity War but appears next in Ant-Man and the Wasp and Avengers 4.

The star-studded Big Slick Celebrity Weekend auction saw participation from Rob Riggle (The Hangover), Jason Sudeikis (Saturday Night Live), Eric Stonestreet (Modern Family), David Koechner (The Office) and about two dozen more celebrity guests.

Kansas City native Stonestreet offered a set visit to his hit ABC sitcom, headed into its 10th and final season, which sold for $26,000.

Sudeikis brought in another $30,000 for an SNL set visit and Dastmalchian sold a visit to CBS’ MacGyver, where he plays the villain Murdoc, for another $12,000.

Spider-Man: Homecoming star Martin Starr offered up a set visit to HBO’s Silicon Valley, which sold for $22,000 after Big Slick guests Angela Kinsey (The Office), Charlie Day (It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia), and Adam Devine (Pitch Perfect) offered to join in.

All in all, the weekend earned $2,099,787, marking the first time the annual fundraiser broke $2 million since its launch in 2010.

Rudd next headlines Ant-Man and the Wasp, out July 6th, before Ant-Man and the Wasp team with the wider Marvel Cinematic Universe in Avengers 4, out May 3, 2019.

Now this funny group with big hearts wants you to join them for the 2017 festivities!

“To support a great cause, I am teaming up with Omaze to invite you and a friend to join me and my friends for a game of softball,” said Riggle in a video posted by Omaze.

The cause to which Riggle is referring is the Cancer Center at Children’s Mercy Hospital in Kansas City. Recognized as one of the nation’s top pediatric medical centers, Children’s Mercy “provides comprehensive care to nearly 2,000 children each year with childhood cancers, sickle cell disease, hemophilia and other blood disorders.”

“It’s going to be a bunch of middle-aged guys…in Kansas. It’s like Coachella except for a children’s hospital.” Rudd jokingly said.

In addition to playing in the softball game (which takes place at Kauffman Stadium – home of the Kansas City Royals), the lucky winner also gets to watch a Royals game from the Hall of Fame suite and VIP access to the Big Slick Bowling Tournament and exclusive party and auction. Airfare and accommodations are also covered.

A bevy of Hollywood stars (including Will Ferrell, Olivia Wilde, Johnny Knoxville, and Selena Gomez) have made appearances in past years and 2017 will be no different.

On this Throwback Thursday we go all the way back to the very first Big Slick in 2010 when our seemingly ambitious goal was to raise $50,000 for Children’s Mercy. Fast-forward to 2016, having raised over $3M in the last six years, and we’re just two weeks out from our SEVENTH Big Slick Celebrity Weekend. This is going to be the biggest and slickest ‪#‎BigSlickKC‬ yet!
